La Mia Boutique 08-09/15 Review – Recensione

Here is the last summer issue of La Mia Boutique…slowing heading to Fall. This issue is out until September 15.

I like to start from the cover…royal blue is a color that I never think about…I find it can look slightly dated or very cool depending on the pattern. Here I think we have both…I don’t like it at all on the jacket…but love it on the dress (scroll down to see it in all its beauty!)

This is a crepe dress with a front pleat and a pleated georgette insert and a knit underdress. I don’t quite get the inside pleating…I got an headache from the instructions….but looking at the pattern you could easily skip it and avoid all the fuss.

On the other hand I don’t like this dress at all….well at least not the bottom part! But since I like seeing if there’s something positive…here is my take. If you wanted a simple knit dress pattern in a larger size….just omit the bottom and redraft the skirt hem. As you can see from the tech drawing it’s a really since shape!

What’s going on??? The styling on this issue is actually not too crazy. And I love some of these pieces. The sandals are lovely…I have a pair in black that are a very similar style…just flats. I love them.
